Our friends' 20yr old daughter is fighting cancer at MD Anderson. They're discussing possibly moving to hospice, if that indicates how bad the situation is. On top of this, Mike is hospitalized w/Covid.
Today I discovered they got a $53K bill for the Air Amb.
A THREAD
I'm not going to rant about the absurdity of the bill (today) because my focus is on getting my friends help. If you know who/which org can help with this please let me know or send this to them.
This is just ONE bill. And it's just for the helicopter. $54k! 2/3
Our friends are amazing people. I've never met anyone sweeter than Steff. Caitlin, their daughter, is in extraordinary pain every day (it's a rare cancer, a tumor on her spine). This has been HELL.
Please let me know if you or someone you know can assist. /End
I forgot to add: the air ambulance company is apparently not FDA regulated, which is why they've been slapped with this bill.
Ugh forgot the GoFundMe link (I'm so mad I can't text/tweet straight)
Texans order approx 15 million prescriptions annually via the mail system. In HD 106, that translated to approximately 75,000 prescriptions. In the midst of a pandemic, that could equal disaster for Denton County’s senior population of nearly 20,000. 1/4
W/ the Trump Admin systematically dismantling the @USPS ahead of the Nov, it is imperative that leaders stand up against this blatant scheme to affect the outcome in Nov. The fallout from these decisions are things like our seniors getting meds on time and in a safe manner. 2/4
TX leadership continues to espouse the position that everything is fine while insisting voting by mail is riddled by fraud. And my opponent aligns himself with that leadership. 3/4
